i have to right a story for school so i decided to secrertly write about AC its a bit lengthy and the names were randomly made up and can be changed.... Also can been seen in a newbs perspective
I could barely remember what happened, we were in the cathedral praying when a man in a Blue hooded robe opened some portal which let these dark creatures rule our town, then I passed out.
I had awakened, now I’m in a strange forest when the sun was about to set, surrounded by trees. I start running I see two houses with a watch tower to the south. The store keeper noticed me and called me over I walked slowly towards him he said in a loud low toned voice “you’re new here aren’t ya?â€
“Yes†I replied.
“I’ve seen many adventures like you pass by but you’re the first I actually had a chance to talk to.†“So what’s your name fellow?†the store keeper asked
“Graythor†I replied.
“Graythor is it, nice name, my name is James.†I stuck out my hand and he extended his with a smile. “My family has been running this store for many years now, but we haven’t been getting as much service as we used to since the people have been making new towns across this island.†James said. “Its starting to get dark why don’t you have dinner with us and sleep here for the night.â€
“You sure it will be ok?†I asked
“It will be no problem we have plenty of food and we have an extra bed upstairsâ€. “Thank you very much†I replied feeling as if I had made a new friend.
That night I couldn’t sleep I had too many questions in my head, how did I get here, why was I brought here, how am I going to find my way around, how am I going to get back? I thought I should at least get some sleep James could maybe answer my questions in the morning.
The next day I woke up to the smell of food frying in a fire place I headed downstairs and James’ wife was in front of the fireplace cooking while her children were freshening up. She looks over her shoulder and smiles
“Good morning, did you sleep well?â€
“It was great thank you, where is James?â€
“He’s out front doing some work in the garden.†She answered. I headed out front to talk to James
“Good morning Jamesâ€.
“Hi Graythor, I was just finishing up our little garden here.â€
“I have some questions to ask you.†I said
“Go right aheadâ€
“First of all how come I was brought here and how?â€
“Well how you got here is a mystery is a mystery to me but I have a pretty good reason why you were brought here.â€
“Can you please tell me?â€
“Yes I can, Well most of this island is overrun by creatures, no not like fluffy pink bunnies, creatures that have the capabilities of humans running, talking, and equipping items, clubs, knives, swords etc.â€
“And what does this have to do with me?â€
“Well in your land you were one of many warriors that could save this place.â€
“How did you know that I was a warrior?â€
“Well, you’re new to this land and you had that same look on your face that most people do when they come here.†Good enough for me I thought. “Here I have a map in the shop and a book of the different creatures, oh yes and a dagger to protect you.â€
“Oh, that would be great thanks.†He walked to his shop crouched over the steel chest and pulled the items out.
“You be safe now if you run east you will come into the town of houltburg, you can have people tell you more information there.†I started running down the road turned around and waved to them high in the air.
I ran for about five minutes down the road I was out of breath but I finally reached town. The chatter of people’s voices echoed throughout the air. The local bar up the hill seemed to be crowded with men. I decided to enter the bar. Inside the bar, there were men of all sorts; most of them looked like they were experienced fighters. I sat at the bar, had a few drinks, and started to look at the map that James gave me. As I looked at the map, it seemed as if the island I am on is called Dereth and it was divided into five parts Northern Osteth, Southern Osteth, Western Osteth, Eastern Osteth, and Direlands. Under the word, Direlands was skull and crossbones. Then there were three smaller islands Aertheline, Mare lassel, and Singular caulnilain. I spent most of my day in the bar reading up on the Islands and just thinking of how to survive. That night I spent my time in the local in since I had no other place to sleep at the time.
I awoke the next morning at the inn; the sun was rising and shining through the window and onto my bed. I walked outside, crossed the road and sat on the ledge in front of the choppy river. The town was silent since it was early all you could hear was the current of the water flowing onto the shore.
In a few hours, the town was noisy full of beggars and adventurers. A man in a suit of what looked like studded leather and chain mail; was standing with a group of other adventurers and towns people. The man pointed to a sign on the well, the sign had a list of criminals. I over heard the man talking about them and how he wanted to catch the thieves. The man stood on the wooden fence that made the cow pen and shouted,
“A group of my men are going to enter the cave where these criminals are hiding; he held up the poster, those of you who want to join us raise your weapon in the air!†Not many people chose to go with them but since I would rather go have an adventure than sit around town and do, nothing I raised the dagger that James gave me in the air. The man saw the dagger and said “sir what is your name?â€
“Graythor†I replied.
“Graythor you are a brave man to come with us, we will be heading off in five minutes so be ready for battle!â€
We started to run for about thirty seconds or so before we came to an apple tree. “Why did we stop?†I asked.
“We are going to set up a battle plan we don’t have many fighters but they do.†“But the sign only had three or four men on it.â€
“Those were only the leaders of the bandits, but they have about fifty or so minions.†We went over the battle plan, and started to run again.
We made it to the cave we were standing our distance because there were guards blocking the entrance. Two men on our side took out their bows and fired an arrow each only one hit a guard, the other guard went into the cave to tell the other men. A spears man and one of the archers stood on top of the cave entrance and equipped their spears. As the enemy came charging out the spearmen drove the spears through the skulls of the enemy. The captain of our squad signaled us in; the two archers stood outside, just incase. The cave was lit up by the torches on the wall, we slowly worked our way to the bottom of the cave behind a locked metal gate was all the loot from the stores they robbed and the people they killed. We took all the treasure we could in large potato sacks and went back up. When we were almost to the top we became ambushed by the thieves, they had us surrounded, our captain did some quick thinking and took one of the torches off the wall and threw it onto a thief, the thief lit on fire and ran around and caught two or three other people on fire. We used all our might to defeat them we lost nearly all our men we were down to five men the captain me two archers and an axe man. The captains fled out of the cave, we chased after them one of the archers got one of the men, the man screamed in agony as the arrow pierced through his back. The last four of us went back into the cave, grabbed the loot, and headed back to town.
We made it to town wounded, tired, and filled with mixed emotions. We headed to the healer; after giving the loot back to the town, and stayed there for the night. I woke from my sleep in the middle of the night, in pain not just in my body but also from the thought of some of the best warriors in the town died.
In the morning the healer woke me up and said,
“Your friend is outside if you’re looking for him.â€
“Which one of my friends is outside?†I asked.
“The one you came in with last nightâ€.
“Ok, thank you†I replied. He was by the pub, I limped over to him and said “thank you for letting me fight with you and your armyâ€.
“No problem Graythor you are a warrior with many talents.â€
“You are to we couldn’t have done anything with out you.â€
“Well I’ve been trying to catch those men for a year or so now; we were just lucky to kill one of the leaders yesterday.â€
“Would you like to head back to the cave and pay our last respects?â€
“I think that would be the best to do.†He replied.
“By the way, what is your name?â€
“Red, but people around here call me the Redeemer.â€
We were not able to head to the cave; a heavy rain storm came in during the afternoon and rained the whole day. With the rain came very thick fog that you couldn’t even see your hands in front of your face.
The next day around noon, we walked to the cave to pay our respects. The cave had the scent of decaying bodies; rats, bats, and flies were swarming the rotted corpses. We could not stand the scent of the bodies; we had our hands over our mouths and noses. Red walked forward four or five paces and went down on one knee, dropped his head, and put his hand over his eyes.
“What’s wrong red? Is everything alright?â€
Red stood up, faced me and said with sorrow in his eyes,
“See that body against the wall facing down?â€
“Yes.†I replied.
“That man was my brother.†I felt so bad for Red now,
Therefore, I replied “Would you like me to leave you for a few minutes?â€
“No its ok you can stay.†We stayed for about fifteen minutes then left the cave.
As we stepped outside Red took a deep breath and bit his lip.
“Gray, I have a question, How about you and I start a new allegiance and we will get different warriors from across the land. Together I bet we can have an unstoppable force.â€
“I’m not really sure about that, do you think you can handle it?â€
“Yes, but always remember the key to being a great fellowship or allegiance is friendship.â€
“Ok, I think I’m up for this challenge, but where are we going to get some good fighters? The men from here just barely got us to win a fight like this.â€
“Arwic†Red replied
“Arwic, where’s that?â€
“From here, about a two day run.â€
“TWO DAYS! ARE YOU CRAZY?â€
“Well how else do you suppose we get there?â€
“You’ve a point there well if it is worth it, yes I will run it with you; do you know how to get there?â€
“Yes I do I’m actually from there and I know a few people who I think would be very interested in joining us.â€
“Great, when will we leave?â€
“If you want we can leave right now.â€
“Why right now?†I asked
“Well what do we need to do right now back in Houltburg?â€
I thought for a few seconds and said “nothing, I guess.â€
“Ok then, follow me and be careful this can be a dangerous road at times.
We walked for endless hours down a long, stony, bending road. We ran into a few difficulties on the road but nothing that we couldn’t handle. As the sun was setting, we came to a gorgeous, huge, obsidian bridge. The bridge had two rings from the water to about twenty feet above the bridge. At the beginning of the bridge was a sign with a piece of torn yellow paper posted on it that said; to Arwic. Red turned around to me and said “this is where we set up camp for the night.â€
The sun was at the horizon and painted the sky orange, and the clouds purple, the reflection off the motionless river was beautiful. The moon lit the night sky with the glimmering stars. Red had lit a fire to keep us warm, and we made a hut out of branches and ferns to keep us from getting wet if an unexpected storm came in. Red and I were sitting in front of the blazing fire. I said to Red
“How long have you been living here?â€
“For all I remember, since I was born.â€
“And how did you get the interest of being a fighter?â€
“My father was a warrior like my entire family gray; I’d say it’s just a family thing; I guess.â€
“Do you have family back in Arwic?â€
“Yes, actually my family founded arwic and now it has become the largest trade city.â€
“Wow, that’s a big accomplishment for one family, and how did it get so popular?â€
“That I really don’t know, Well Gray it’s getting pretty late and we’re going to get up pretty early tomorrow so why don’t we kill the fire and get some rest.†“One more thing gray, this was the easy part of the road tomorrow prepare for some fighting.â€
As we awakened from our long night rest, the sun was rising over the distant horizon; a cool morning breeze awakened the wildlife from the forests. We started our second day of our long journey to the city of Arwic. Most of the morning nothing unusual was happening. Until, I spotted something lying on the ground on top of a grassy hill.
“Red; hold on a second.†I said with curiosity. Red stopped and turned to see me walking to the top of the hill. I kneeled down; it looked like a corpse of a man or a woman, I couldn’t tell because the corpse was mostly flesh. “Hey red, come take a look at this.â€
Red starts to walk towards me noticing the corpse halfway up the hill and says with fear “Gray, get away from there, now!â€
“Why?†I asked
“You wouldn’t understand get away from there!â€
“Why wouldn’t I understand?â€
“Just…†red starts running towards me, the corpse started to move, I turned around the corpse was standing up with a bow equipped with an arrow pointed at my face. Red sprints towards me pushes me out of the way, he moves back takes his sword and charges towards the undead creature, with one fatal blow to the abdomen the monster crumples towards the ground. Red turns to me and says with anger
“Now, next time when I tell you a command please listen to me.â€
“Ok.â€
“Great, now that we understand each other, we will absolutely NOT stop for any reason whatsoever, agreed?â€
“Yes.â€
“Ok then, lets get moving before so wont need to camp another night.†Red said. Hours passed like days until a saw the glorious sign, Welcome to Arwic!
It was still about a fifty foot walk until we actually got to the town of Arwic. I have never seen a town so lively in my life. I just stood staring into the town; I probably looked like some kind of idiot.
Red shouts as he starts walking “hey gray are you coming? Or are you just going to stand there drawling?â€
I brake out of my daze and replied “huh… What?â€
Red gives out a hardy laugh and says “C’monâ€
We walked to Red’s house just outside of town it was a small cottage with an archway in front of the entrance. As we walked inside everyone was in the living room talking. After I shut the door, everyone looked over and noticed Red and they seemed so excited.
“Your back!†everyone yelled in excitement
“Wow, this place gets better every time I see it.†Red said
“Why don’t you stay at home more often, adventuring is going to get you killed someday.â€
next part is boring and is still in the process of sounding better
